On Saturday nights，A.J. Coston doesn’t get a lot of sleep. Usually three or four times a night，a loud bell rings，a red light goes off，and he has to jump out of his bed. That’s because he’s a weekend volunteer firefighter(消防員)with Loudoun County Fire and Rescue Station 13 in Northern Virginia. During the week，he lives at home with his mom，dad and sister and does his main job which is to go to high school.
“I have always wanted to get into firefighting since I was a little kid watching fire trucks go by，”he says. “One day on the Internet I noticed that Loudoun County offered a junior firefighter program.” He was only 16，but he got it.
Fighting fires is dangerous work. Firefighters never stop practicing the skills because they need to stay safe. Once Coston learned those skills，he was allowed to work inside burning buildings.
“Teamwork is most important，”he says. “It’s the whole team that puts the fire out.”
Firefighters feel great about helping people. “My most unbelievable call was probably the time four kids were struck by lightning，” says Coston. He will be off to college next fall，building on his dream job. “I’ll get my degree in emergency(緊急情況)medical care，and then work in a fire and rescue company for a while.
